A landmark 1930s code shaping lumber industry rules and recovery efforts

This book presents the Code of Fair Competition for the Lumber and Timber Products Industry, approved in 1933. It outlines how industry groups proposed to administer the code, set production goals, and enforce fair trade practices.

The text covers how the code aims to reduce unemployment, improve labor standards, balance production with demand, and conserve forest resources. It details the structure of the administering authority, divisions and subdivisions, and the roles of government and industry representatives in enforcement, reporting, and compliance.

Administration and enforcement mechanisms for fair trade within the lumber sector
Labor provisions, including wages, hours, and worker rights
Production control through quotas and allocation across divisions
Rules on minimum prices, discounts, commissions, and wholesale behavior

Ideal for readers exploring historical industrial policy, 1930s economic reform, or the National Recovery Administration’s approach to industry codes.
